Transcript Procedura rinnovo delle cariche sociali del chapter

Procedura rinnovo cariche dei chapter
Il rinnovo delle cariche sociali del chapter prevede la stessa procedura adottata per
la Sezione (vedi estratto da MGA Operational Manual allegato).
E’ accettabile anche una procedura semplificata: in mancanza di una commissione
elettorale il chair può:
- inviare la call for nomination (mandando una E-notice a tutti i membri del chapter,
dando due/tre settimane di tempo per avere le risposte);
- preparare la lista dei candidati alle cariche con breve biografia e comunicare a
tutti i membri tali candidature, sempre mediante e-notice, lasciando un mese per
raccogliere eventuali candidature per petition (con 12 firme di membri del chapter a
supporto)
- indire le votazioni dei candidati che sono stati individuati.
E’ consigliato rinnovare non solo chair ma anche vice-chair, segretario e tesoriere
(questa funzione può essere anche svolta dal chair o dal segretario).
Per le votazioni si può convocare un’assemblea dei soci (anche telematica) oppure
si consiglia l’utilizzo di V-tool vooting, un programma messo a punto dalla IEEE per
questo scopo.
Si può trovare un tutorial su come utilizzare il programma a questo indirizzo:
